Sudoku Variants Series (324) - Sudoku Sum Pointers

(Published on 9. June 2021, 00:00 by Richard)

For this Sudoku Variants Project I have planned to publish a different Sudoku variant every week. I will see how long it takes before I am running out of ideas.

Sudoku Sum Pointers
Apply classic sudoku rules.
A plus sign between two horizontal neighbouring cells indicates that the sum of the digits is equal to the first (leftmost) digit in the respective row. A plus sign between two vertical neighbouring cells indicates that the sum is equal to the firs (topmost) digit in the respective column. All possible plus signs are given.

Inspiration for this type comes from glum_hippo.

Solve online in F-Puzzles (thx to SudokuExplorer!)
Solve online in Penpa+ (thx to Henry!)

Solution code: Row 7, followed by column 7.

The penpa link appears to be incorrect. I.e the given digits are in the wrong place

This idea of using XY-Sums in absence of XY-Differences is entirely yours, but I'm flattered by the comparison! Very nice puzzle!

*Corrected* Penpa+: https://git.io/JZZHc

My apologies for the mistake. I was busy during the day so after putting it into Penpa I left it there. I started to solve it just now and quickly realized something was wrong.
